Default TRAIL TACH FOR 03 RAPTOR

HOW EASY IS IT TO INSTALL ONE OF THE TRAIL TECH SPD, TACH ON A RAPTOR AS FAR AS WIRING IT?

I have only seen in done, and it look pretty hard. Ok, well, I watched and then a week later some guy ask me to help him with hi 2003 raptor, and I said that I have only seen it done...but I tried...and I falied...But I did not have any instructions, so it was not that fair.

And I told him, and I will tell you that right now (maybe not after atv school) I am not good with the wireing stuff. But I would say it looks hard, he says that it is pretty easy. But for me, it was hard with no instrustions. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I would say that you could do it. I think you should go for it, if you are putting one on!

the trail tech speedo is easy to install, idk about the tach i guess.. you just have to take , wheel off, hub off then the hardest part remove one brake rotor bolt. put in the magnet bolt. install the senor mount the bracket thing. measure tire, calibrate the comp. and you are redy to go

The speedo is easy, one wire down to either front wheel. Hardest part is getting one of the rotor bolts out to install the magnetic bolt in it's place. Be sure to use LocTite and torque it to spec. You may need to drill a hole in the dust shield for the pick-up but that's pretty easy. Just follow the instructions and you'll be fine. It takes about 30 min to an hour to do the whole thing, including programing the speedo. Can't help ya with the Tach, sorry............

if you have basic tools and know how,,,the trailtech install is a cinch

be sure to route the cable properly to avoid binding

and the locktite is a good idea

Yes, it can be easy, but then again, it can be hard. For me, being the dummy I am, it would be hard. But I think you could do it.

It does not sounds that hard...but then again, it was for me...

gurudude, Don't you think that you should get a quad and some experience before you start giving out info?
